5.0 out of 5 stars
Superb general intro. to politics and ethics of agriculture,
By florey@ibm.net (Houston, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Spirit of the Soil: Agriculture and Environmental Ethics (Environmental Philosophies) (Paperback)
The educated layperson will find Dr. Thompson's *Spirit of the Soil* to be a perfect introduction to the bewilderingly complex ethical and economic questions that increasingly surround modern agriculture. The author ruthlessly dissects politically charged and often intentionally vague terms and concepts such as "sustainability," "stewardship," the consumer mentality, and the flawed yet indispensible materialism of modern production agriculture. This book will be enormously helpful to anyone who wants to attack farm policy with a more mature understanding of the ethical issues upon which the cultural and physical sustainability of modern agriculture depends
